Zara McDermott has revealed she was "gutted" after being in the Strictly dance off last week.
The Strictly Come Dancing star, who is partnered up with Graziano Di Prima, has pleaded with fans to vote for her this week, so she can avoid being in the bottom two again.
The 26-year-old, who found fame on Love Island, posted the appeal to her 1.8 million Instagram followers. Last week, the now documentary presenter took part in the dance-off against presenter Nikita Kanda and her dance partner Gorka Márquez.
Judges voted to save Zara and Graziano - sending Nikita and Gorka home - but Zara is worried there could be a repeat of the bottom two if her followers don't back her.
This week she is hoping her Viennese Waltz will impress both judges and the viewing public so that she gets enough points to get through to next week's shows. Posting on Instagram, Zara said: "I’ve tried not to let last weeks results get me down, even though I was quietly gutted and sad last Saturday to be in the bottom two.
However, this week and ESPECIALLY today I am channelling FULL CONFIDENCE! "I’ve been up since 5am, going over the choreography in my head, telling myself positive things, and telling myself that I absolutely can do this. "This routine tonight is my favourite.
It’s emotional, beautiful, and incredible choreography by my partner @grazianodiprima." The Strictly star continued: "I also keep telling myself, this is what Strictly is all about, and I’ve done the scariest part last week which was the dance off. "For someone who’s a complete novice, not only to dancing, but also to performing, I believe that even getting on that stage and performing live in front of millions is an achievement in itself." Zara, who is in a relationship with Made in
